ご注文はうさぎですか miscellaneous discussion

[seanblue]

If you like comedy, cafes, or rabbits, ご注文はうさぎですか is the manga for you!

I’ve discussed this manga (and anime) several times on the forums and I know others have expressed interest in reading it. This discussion topic is NOT a book club. Rather, it is a place where you can ask questions about the manga if you are considering reading it or ask questions / discuss the content if you are currently reading it. Since this topic is about the series as a whole, please use spoiler tags where appropriate.

P.S. As of creating this topic, I’ve read through volume 2, chapter 7.

Here are some sample pages from three separate chapters if anyone wants to check the difficulty.

Volume 1 Chapter 2

Volume 1 Chapter 4

Volume 2 Chapter 8

Great! I’ve had this in my cart for a while now. Just haven’t pulled the trigger. looking forward to the responses to this thread

[seanblue]

Awesome, feel free to post any questions you might have! I need an excuse to revisit volume 1 and do a deeper analysis of the stuff I didn’t understand.

@Naphthalene By the way, I have a very specific question about the end of volume 2 chapter 1, so please let me know when you read that chapter.

[seanblue]

@Kyasurin Find the word we learned from Kiki! It’s in kanji here, but I’m proud that I guessed it was the same word from the context!

[Radish8]

sorry to pollute your thread with non-manga talk, but I just finished season 2 of the anime and wanted to say thanks for pointing me towards it!

[seanblue]

Next step: read the manga!

[Radish8]

I’ll add it to the list

[Naphthalene]

Find the word

Is it お裾分け?

[seanblue]

Yep, you win! Honestly, I was mostly just looking for an excuse to bump the thread haha.

[Kyasurin]

I did realise that was the word, by the way!
Were you surprised to see it in a different context? I think that after Kiki I almost felt it was witch-specific terminology.

[seanblue]

I was kind of surprised because it doesn’t seem like a common word. It actually showed up once before in the manga too.

[somatophobia]

I’ve been wanting to read this for a while—it looks too adorable for words. Is the page seanblue posted representative of difficulty?

[seanblue]

No, those two panels are very easy compared to much of the manga. If you want I can take a few pictures of whole pages so you can judge for yourself.

[seanblue]

@somatophobia and anyone else interested (@Naphthalene, @Radish8, @heisamaniac, etc.):
I’ve updated the first post with 12 sample pages across three chapters so people can see more of the content and judge difficulty.

[Radish8]

Thanks, that’s really helpful!

[somatophobia]

Thank you very much for doing that! That’s super helpful and kind. It’s also very heartening to see, because I could plod my way through that.

[seanblue]

Volume 2 chapter 9 had a really brilliant sequence, but there’s no one here I can discuss it with since no one is reading along yet.

[Naphthalene]

Nooo.
Life has been preventing me from going to buy it so far
Maybe I should just gave and pay the hard price to Amazon…
But bookoff is just 20 min away. Aaaaaaaaaah

[seanblue]

Gooooo buuuuuy ittttt. I’m sure you’ll find it in Bookoff next time you go!

P.S. It’ll only take you like a week to catch up to me once you buy it.
P.P.S. I’ll be curious to know how many words you look up in the first volume.
